In one of my beloved Cretan regions, under the huge oak tree, one of my beloved couples decided to have a Greek Orthodox ceremony to always and forever cherish their values and stand for their family unconditional love!
It was a hot day, let me tell you!
We listened to cicadas, broke all the wooden fans😁, threw lots of rice and drank all cherry and lemon fusion water!
Day to remember forever 🩷🧿🇬🇷
Να ζήσετε H&P❤️

Intimate mid summer blessing in the private chapel of Saint Nicolas @markakisestate for Barbara and Peter!
Can you plan it within a week? Yes, we can!
Sometimes things happen for a reason and when the couple’s initial plans had to take different direction, we were thrilled to make their dream come true in the land of their ancestors.
Greece has such a spiritual meaning for many Greeks leaving abroad and it is heartfelt to see new generations and their parents cherishing traditions and history!
Να ζήσετε!

She said Yes!
An absolutely stunning moment for Steve and Anna…and their families.
This is what Steve had to say about our services❤️
From the very first message to the moment I saw my partner’s eyes light up during our proposal, Anna and her incredible team at Crete for Love exceeded every single expectation I had. Planning a proposal can be nerve-wracking—especially from afar—but with Anna’s guidance, warmth, and eye for detail, what could have been a stressful process became one of the most joyful and unforgettable experiences of my life.
- Personalized Planning: Anna doesn’t offer cookie-cutter experiences. She crafted a unique proposal concept that felt like it was made just for us—down to the exact location, timing, and décor.
- Unmatched Professionalism: Every step of the process was smooth and stress-free. Anna and her team handled all the logistics, vendors, and coordination, leaving me free to focus on the big moment.
- Breathtaking Execution: The setting was absolutely stunning—picture a hidden beach at golden hour, candlelight, flowers, and a perfect view. It was even more beautiful than I imagined.
- Warm, Caring Service: Anna is not just a planner; she’s a kind soul who genuinely cares about her clients. I felt supported and heard the entire time, and that human connection made all the difference.
